Oh, such Ancient Pages I see this Autumn Night.
Yet I feel no Benignity nor Relief. Merely Sadness.
Not a single Page still alive, not one without Embers.
A Woe to the Past I gave, So much destroyed, so much forgotten.
Without the magical words that danced on them, who would fill such a void?
Who would give us a Mind to bring about Life?
Where would we turn to for Guidance?
As this dawned, I found one untouched.
A book, with a cover White as Snow.
Yet Pages, Blacker than Ink.
But it was not touched by the fires.
It lay amidst its smoldering kin in Anguish.
But it was not touch by the blaze.
Flames danced around it like a jester to his thane.
But it was not touched by the Smolders.
Why?
